In the Dark - Nina Simone

In the dark

It’s just you and I

Not a sound

There’s not one sigh

Just the beat of my poor heart

In the dark

Now in the dark, in the dark

I get such a thrill

When he presses his fingertips

Upon my lips

And he begs me to please keep still

In the dark

But soon

This dance will be endin'

And you’re gonna be missed

Gee, I’m not pretendin'

'Cause I swear it’s fun

Fun to be kissed

In the dark

Now we will find

What the rest

Have left behind

Just let them dance

We’re gonna find romance

Lord, in the dark
